Pencil Holders

(lynnette:) I have always thought that the pencil holders that I have seen in pictures of Montessori classrooms were eye-catching. I decided to make a set for our classroom.


I used vegetable cans so that they would all be the same size. I covered them with construction paper and packing tape. Saving the cans took the most amount of time. I am hoping that it will help make a more peaceful environment for our classroom.
